More food fun...

I guess yesterday was a blast for the wife and the oldest. See, the oldest was bored and the wife suggested making my favorite sweet (no, ice cream is not my only downfall - otherwise I wouldn't appear to be pregnant). Anyway, the child makes no bake cookies. Now, growing up, no bakes were my singular weakness. Unfortunately, with age, I've developed a nasty problem where I can't have beer, honey or nuts (including peanut butter - the biggest ingredient in no bakes).

So, I come out of the office on a break, and there are the no bakes. Immediately, I start slobbering thinking how I might be able to have just one (famous last words). I get agitated, and give the child grief. The kid's response? Yep, eat a no bake, right there, right in front of me.

Later that night, when the wife comes home from work, I'm giving her grief as well (for eating 6 no bakes in front of me). The best part, was the karma train. The oldest tries to stick up for the wife, but does so by swinging the remote. Said remote, hits the wife in the knee.

I laughed so hard I could hardly breathe. Man, I love that there karma train...

We try to keep things from getting dull...otherwise we need to listen to the children whine about how "there's nothing to do..." like when we were their age we didn't have to walk to school through blizzards, uphill both ways... ;)
